As the only active female on the LUG, I have to jump in here and say that
Lluis' photo is not at all offensive to me.  I would be flattered, not
insulted, if those were my legs!  I don't usually sneak photos but it seems
to be perfectly acceptable for street photography.  If you stopped to take
names and get permission, you would lose the photo.  Instead of "slice of
life", you would end up with posed, life-style photos.  Yuck!

Here is my take on Legs.  A little different from the ones posted so far ;-)
